What would you do without it all? In this epic adventure from J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot Productions and "Supernatural's" Eric Kripke, a family struggles to reunite in an American landscape where every single piece of technology - computers, planes, cars, phones, even lights - has mysteriously blacked out forever. A drama with sweeping scope and intimate focus, "Revolution" is also about family - both the family you're born into and the family you choose. This is a swashbuckling journey of hope and rebirth seen through the eyes of one strong-willed young woman, Charlie Matheson (Tracy Spiridakos, "Being Human"), and her brother Danny (Graham Rogers, "Memphis Beat"). When Danny is kidnapped by militia leaders for a darker purpose, Charlie must reconnect with her estranged uncle Miles (Billy Burke, "The Twilight Saga"), a former U.S. Marine living a reclusive life. Together, with a rogue band of survivors, they set out to rescue Danny, overthrow the militia and ultimately re-establish the United States of America. All the while, they explore the enduring mystery of why the power failed, and if - or how - it will ever return.[+]more

I miss this and I miss V. But I think I miss V for Elizabeth Mitchel, whereas Revolution I miss for the whole cast and the script. Especially now when everything they make is useless crap (even if you are open minded). Really miss it. Wish someone picked it up for another season (or 3).

This probably got canceled suddenly simply because it was called "Revolution" which they let pass for a season, but once season 2 started at the main enemy was the remnants of the US government known as "The Patriots" some paranoid american security section of the actual US government decided it was going to incite another civil war and was fundamentally anti-patriotic, so they pulled some strings to get rid of it.

Just a conspiracy theory of mine, I watched all the episodes back to back in a week and aside from usual hiccups most shows have with character inconsistencies to suit the plot, things were all going strong, the final scene was even a blatent opening for a new series and storyline focus

@ fan33 - i really hope you're not talking about american horror story! i will slap the crazy right outta you! anyway as long as soa is still going and the strain gets renewed for a second season i'll hold off on the suicide.......for now!!!!

not sad this show is going off the air at all.. i quit watching after that goofy nerdy guy started getting powers, plus i never liked the cast (with the excption of miles and rachel, but i Especially hated Charlie if they were killed her off i might of continued just to see that episode

I don't know where comment disappeared to So sad to see this end... Loved it, and I was looking forward to seeing how the war was going to turn Loved the initial concept, a world with no electricity, that was really good.

Now what we need is for this to happen in real life it would be nice to not have power world wide so many issues are caused by things that require oil and power would would be a safer place even with the chaos , well for people like me who know how to hunt and fight and kill , when need be .

A-Badman-has-cum / No crap really? It's in the making and most of it at least works and with some of the tech we already have right now I'm sure they will figure some thing out, it's kinda what they do.

I don't know if i'm going to like this season, it was the whole "world without modern technology" arc that lead me to watch this show but now that the power's back on it might just be helicopters and tanks. BORING!!!!

Sin1000 / Most of Star Treks tech is in existence. They have a Laser cannon, the photon cannons could be made by using Plasma instead of Lasers, Beaming up and down ok probably not but the the research of Nano tech. it is quite possible, Their engine is basically nothing more then a Uranium power plant powered by some sort of Crystals like the old quartz watches that actually ran on the quartz stone in the 12 hour on the face, their communicators are just basically a CB Radio in a flip phone body And the bird of prey inadvisability shields are being replicated by new studies and prototype suits their trying to perfect by installing a series of cameras in the suit that takes a picture of what ever wall your standing in front of and the suit it's self reacting like a TV viewer regenerating the image so all anyone sees is what the cameras are seeing making you VIRTUALLY invisible. So don't think so closed minded, this isn't the 80's anymore.

===================

I really don't know if I like this show. It does keep me kind of interested from the story lines but there really is no sense of suspense and nothing on here really surprises me. It's got it's moments but mostly it's just a bunch of people talking and Charlie getting herself in trouble some how. I can't really decide if I like it or not, the first few episodes I did but I think I'm kinda losing perspective of what it was I liked about it.
